Exide Life New Immediate Annuity Plan Benefits

The insurer provides you the following benefits under the Exide Life New Immediate Annuity Plan:

Annuity Benefit

The regular income starts after the end of the annuity payout mode as chosen by you. If you have an existing Exide Life pension accumulation policy and you buy an annuity from those proceeds, the insurer provides you a higher annuity rate. The annuity rates will depend on the purchase price, entry age and the annuity payout mode. Check out the table below to know the annuity rates based on your entry age.

Note: The annuity rates are reviewed by the company from time to time. And once the annuity rate is applied at the time of entry, it will remain the same for the rest of the life based on the purchase price.

Death Benefit

In case of death of the life assured during the policy term, the insurer will refund the purchase price to the nominee or legal heir as a death benefit.
